Hiroto couldn't stop giggling like a little schoolboy as he approached Karma's tent with his 'present' in hand. Or maybe he should give it to Gakushū instead?

Nah, Akabane needs it more. Poor man has been depraved of intimacy for years, maybe this will cheer him up. Unzipping the tent and crawling inside, he looked for Karma's bag.

"Aha!" He cheered when he pulled the red bag towards him and unzipped it so he could place the box of condoms inside. 

The bag was filled to the brim with extra clothes and even a cute fluffy teddy bear, which he recognized instantly as the gift Gakushū gave Karma for white day nine years ago. Awwe, he kept it all this time? Meanwhile, he can't even find that old rag doll version of himself that he stitched for his husband six years ago.

He had to remove the clothes and other random things from the bag so he could place the box inside. He'll just shove them all back to hide his gift for Karma, haha he just can't wait to see the red head's expression!

While rummaging the bag, his hand hit something foreign. Curious, he pulled it out to find it was a leather pouch.

The man looked outside the tent to see if anyone was back yet, and against his better judgement, he opened it.

Day 8

"SWIMMING!" Kaede squealed as she jumped off the rock cliff, did a summersault in mid air, and made a giant splash, diving into the beautiful pristine lake.

Nagisa, Ren, and Yuuma clapped as they raised their cardboards with their numbers on it. Nagisa gave his future wife a ten, Ren gave her a five(for her lack of sex appeal)

And Yuuma gave her also a ten.

"Karma! Stop it! Stop! I said stop!" Gakushū roared as Karma continuously sprayed him with cold water using his water gun.

Yes, Karma, who is twenty seven, brought a water gun toy with him, to attack his ex boyfriend with.

"God damn it! I'll get back at you!" Gakushū picked up a bucket and ran to the river, Karma following after him while laughing like a maniac.

SPLASH!

Karma stood still, dripping wet head to toe. Gakushū laughing as he held the now empty bucket. "Well played" Karma chuckled, chasing the strawberry blonde again.

"When will they grow up?" Itona sighed, before returning to his sandcastle. He took out a large controller from his bag, started fiddling with it, and soon small army tanks were attacking the sandcastle. He seemed to have built the tanks himself. (Author: Ahh, to have an inventor for a boyfriend)

a few hours later, they gathered at the picnic table for lunch, telling stories about the past, and their present.

Yuuma and Hiroto are both very excited to adopt the little boy from America, Jasper.

Nagisa and Kaede had decided to move their wedding day to next spring.

"My mom is really excited about the wedding, she wouldn't stop showing Kaede different wedding gowns" Nagisa said with a light blush.

"Well at least Kaede's the one wearing the gown, remember back in junior high when she used to force you to be girly?" Rio reminded.

"That's all in the past now" Kaede placed a gentle hand on Nagisa's shoulder.

"Here Gakushū, you should try the cucumber sandwiches" Rio handed Gakushū the plate of sandwiches with a smile. "Thanks" the strawberry blonde took the plate, their fingers brushing against each other.

Karma narrowed his eyes when he noticed Rio's blushing cheeks.

"I want some too" he said to Gakushū. Karma managed to fight off Itona for the seat next to Gakushū, but it meant nothing because the strawberry blonde was pretending he wasn't there.

"Get your own" Gakushū snapped.

It was like the strawberry blonde was bipolar. One second he is reminiscing memories with Karma, or chasing him around while laughing, and then the next he'll act cold and distant. It frustrated Karma to no end.

He wasn't sure what game Nakamura was playing, but her sudden interest on his strawberry blonde made him uncomfortable.

It also scared Karma that Gakushū could possibly reciprocate because he didn't seem to mind her advances. Yesterday, when Rio claimed that her legs hurt so badly, Gakushū offered to carry her around the entire day.

It put Karma on a sour mood seeing them like that, especially since Gakushū used to carry him, not on his back, but bridal style.

He really missed being in Gakushū's arms.

Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep!

The red head looked at his wristwatch. "I'll be back" he said, suddenly standing up.

"What's wrong?" Hiroto asked, worry in his eyes. Karma simply smiled. "It's nothing, I just..." Catching Gakushū's gaze "Need to do something real quick" he pretended to look for his phone. "I forgot I have to turn some files in for work"

Kaede groaned. "I thought we all agreed nothing "work related" while camping!"

Karma smiled apologetically, before walking back into the forest, following the dirt path to their camp site.
